Artifact Conservation Project Coordinator
Solicitation # 88310327Q00012
The National Archives and Records Administration is establishing an Artifact Conservation Vendor Pool to provide specialized conservation support for sixteen Presidential Libraries and Museums over a three-year period. This combined solicitation, under FAR Part 12, seeks qualified vendors to perform condition assessments, risk prioritization, and conservation treatments for various specialty areas, including objects, paintings, textiles, furniture, architectural elements, and works on paper. The total estimated aggregate value of the pool is approximately 1,500,000 dollars, though admission to the pool is a qualification determination and does not guarantee specific work or funding. Admission to the pool is based on a pass/fail acceptability evaluation of three factors: recent experience with at least three similar projects in the last five years, a satisfactory past performance record, and the professional certifications of Lead Conservators, who must hold AIC Professional Member or Fellow status or an equivalent graduate credential. Once admitted, vendors will compete for individual project orders based on price and best-value determinations. Performance may occur at NARA facilities or the contractor's studio, requiring strict adherence to AIC and museum best practices, including all-risk wall-to-wall fine-arts insurance and secure transit protocols. Invoicing is managed through ipp.gov, and technical oversight is provided by a designated Contracting Officer's Representative.
